It's a job. The umbrella company at least pretends to try. Good to tide you over until you can get out. Good if you are stuck in the area for family.

Cons

This is a horribly managed company. Maybe Dave Mele will turn things around but right now the only thing he cares about is putting more ads on the site. There's no long term investment in the staff. They are treated disrespectfully. If you want to work for a company that recognizes that innovation is in the product itself and in the customer service, don't work here.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

The focus on sales is doomed. the ads for homes and renatls are not a platform for selling more ads. Solve customer problems = winning

compensation was fair at the time . . but never really kept up with the increasing cost of living

Cons

Was promised the world when they took over our company, at first things were ok, nothing spectacular then Homes.com closed down our location consolidating our company into another location. was told when they took over, that I was welcome too reapply for a job that I had for several years before I had ever head of homes.com

The people I work with are great. Management is a bit scattered but overall, the company is stable. The building is nice and the transportation system/parking benefits are good.

Cons

Lots of mixed messages with little direction as far as what our future holds for us. The leader left the company and the future doesn't look great. There is no profit share or any real benefit to helping the company succeed besides keeping a day job.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Create clear vision on the path of this company. One minute, we are running advertising all over cable television and growing and the next minute, we are told we are cutting back and to go back to profit mode. Too many mixed messages.
